Ciccarelli's -- Coeur d'Alene…read more As someone who has traveled extensively -- including throughout Italy, one of my favorite places on earth -- I do not say this lightly: Ciccarelli's serves some of the finest pizza I have ever eaten. And I mean anywhere. Italy included. There is something almost impossible to describe about truly exceptional pizza. At a certain level, words begin to fail because great pizza is not analyzed... it's experienced. It's the kind of food that causes conversations to stop mid-sentence because everyone at the table suddenly realizes something special is happening. That's Ciccarelli's. I've lived in Coeur d'Alene barely three weeks and my wife and I have already been there three times. At this point, resistance appears futile. Every pizza we've tried has been a masterpiece. Not "really good." Not "our favorite in town." Masterpiece. The crust alone deserves poetry -- blistered, wood-fired perfection with that delicate balance of crispness, chew, char, and tenderness that only happens when people truly understand dough. Every ingredient tastes intentional. Nothing feels thrown together. Every bite -- from the tip of the slice to the outer crust -- is a full gastronomic experience. Favorites so far: THAT'S AMORE -- red sauce, pepperoni, Italian sausage, red onion, black olives & mozzarella. THE SPICY ITALIAN -- spicy red sauce, pesto, Italian sausage, red onions, fresh mozzarella, parmesan & basil. Ridiculously good. THE STELLA -- olive oil base, goat cheese, prosciutto, apricot preserves & honey drizzle. Sweet, savory, luxurious, and somehow perfectly balanced. And the Pizza Margherita... Listen carefully: A Margherita pizza is the ultimate truth serum for a pizza restaurant. You cannot hide behind toppings. It exposes everything -- crust, sauce, cheese, balance, restraint, technique. Ciccarelli's passes that test with flying colors. Their Margherita has become my weekly sustenance pizza. And then... The desserts. Good grief. Most restaurants treat dessert like an afterthought. Ciccarelli's treats it like a sacred continuation of the meal. I am slowly working my way through their dessert offerings, but I keep getting derailed by the BLACK BOTTOM COCONUT CREAM PIE. I have been eating coconut cream pie for over seventy years. Seventy. I have NEVER had anything like this pie. The rich saturation of flavor... the generous texture of real coconut... the black bottom... whatever culinary sorcery is occurring back there needs to be protected by national treaty. It is so good that you could honestly justify visiting Ciccarelli's solely for dessert. Also outstanding: * Piña Colada Cream Pie * Strawberry Shortcake Torte * Napoleon * Cannoli The restaurant itself is immaculate, intimate, warm, and beautifully designed. Seating is limited, however, and deservedly so. My advice? Get there early or go on a weekday if possible. They also offer lovely outdoor seating. And finally, the family behind it all. There is something unmistakable about a place built by people who genuinely love what they do, love each other, and love the experience they are creating for others. You can feel it the moment you walk in. That kind of thing cannot be faked. Ciccarelli's is not merely a restaurant. It's one of those rare places people discover and then quietly hope doesn't become too famous because they still want to get a table. An absolute gem in Coeur d'Alene.

After striking out with several other places, I was convinced I wouldn't be able to make it happen. Not only did Birdie's Pie Shop take my order the day before Father's Day, but they also offered to deliver it directly to my parents' house! Since I live in a different state, that level of kindness and customer service was such a blessing. Truly above-and-beyond service. 10/10 recommend!

She gave me the run-down of all the pies and I settled on the summer special with coconut and passion fruit and some other fruit in it. I would give it a B- due to too much coconut in the crust and because the coconut overpowered the other flavors. It looked beautiful and tasted good and could have been better sans so much coconut. A review of the 30+ pies I've tried is coming soon!

I have gone to this bakery twice now and taken a sourdough class. Every visit has been wonderful…read more The staff is so warm and welcoming. They are located in the same shopping center as Super 1 and Ace Hardware. I like their coffee bakery shop is to the left of the parking lot and has ample spaces to park. The shop itself is very big and spacious. It includes lots of room for seating for different party sizes. The selection of pastries, breads and drinks make this an excellent place to visit. The prices are also very reasonable. I did also take the beginner sourdough class and had a great time. It was a small group and the instructor (owner) really took the time to answer questions, discuss methods and helped us perfect the techniques. Class took us through every step of the process and we got to go home with a starter and a loaf we cut. Since then I have made my own loaf using what I learned and it came out perfect. This is one of the best hands on classes in the area.

So I've been back a few times now and , despite there being many drinks and combos to choose from, I keep ordering the Scotchy. I'm a big root beer person, but this root beer drink has butterscotch, vanilla and cream. It's so tasty. Thing is, the first few drinks are better because you can taste the butterscotch. But after that the butterscotch flavor goes away. It needs more butterscotch is my opinion. But the vanilla and cream flavors remain throughout. They also have really yummy cookies, which I do not order with the drink: too much sugar. But if you have a hankering for a cookie, they make an excellent big chocolate chip cookie; very worth while. So if you're visiting the food trucks on Horse Haven in Post Falls and looking for a sweet treat after your meal, this place will probably have something you really like.

I thought to myself well, let's check it out and see if it's Truth and advertising. Spoiler alert, it wasn't. First thing you should know, is gross is the guy's last name that started the business. Been doing it for 47 years according to a plaque on the inside of the business. I'll tell you what, and 4700 this guy has the donut game down. First of all, this is one of the largest donut shops I've ever seen that had two separate rooms for sitting, now I don't know if they just got a restaurant that had gone out of business and turned into a donut shop or if they have that kind of volume coming in through the day. Either way it's plenty of room to sit and hang out and chat and have a couple good donuts. The counter people were nice and friendly, and explain to me the name of the shop, thankfully it was not truth and advertising. These donuts are hard and gross. These are like amazing donuts and I would have eaten a dozen of them if I did not have the self-risk paint that I possess. I had a chocolate moose filled chocolate boys donut with a chocolate milk. I'm guessing you can see that I like chocolate. This place definitely did not disappoint in that area and had some amazing, amazing ones. Thanks! So it was definitely a treat that I really enjoy trying. Bottom line? Go here and have a couple of donuts. Absolutely awesome!

It was dingy and dirty and the flavors were the same. Since we always get the tart vanilla flavor and there wasn't any, we were annoyed. If changes are not made from the prior owners, the outcome will be the same.
